The SAR Government’s plan of revising a subject in schools to promote “National Education” met strong opposition from students and civic groups in 2011-12. The subject was opposed for “brain-washing” the students by praising the PRC regime on the one hand and denouncing Western democracy on the other. After massive protests by the public, the government suspended its plan.
